  • I’m sorry but that is grossly untrue. Apple is pretty good at sweeping them under the rug but they’re absolutely no stranger to failed or underwhelming products. Remember AirPower? Or how about Homepod? Ping comes to mind as well. Those certainly didn’t demolish the wireless charger, home assistent or social media industry. Far from it.

    Even many more succesful products can hardly be said to have demolished their entire industry. The iPhone might have won over the US, but everywhere else Samsung is king. Windows computers remain far more popular than any Mac. Even Airpods, while very innovative at the time, now have many succesful and often more affordable competitors.

    The only spaces I’d say Apple is truly dominant is smart watches and tablets. But even then Garmin makes a better sports watch and 2 in 1 laptops eat into the tablet market.

    We just have to wait and see where Vision ends up. In any case, until we can actually experience the device ourselves it is nothing more than a sales pitch.
